Are you planning to use the 60's as well?
well. I moved from 5D2 to C100 couple months ago, and Ive already did 3 full day weddings using C100.
There is seriously not a single advice I can give ya since I dont know anything about your shooting style.
But there is one thing that Im pretty sure, C100 overkills a simple wedding coverage.
It is actually so hard to screw up a wedding unless you dont know anything about the camera.
Go through wedding timeline, know exactly whats gonna happen next, and just be a labour.
C100 wont be a block between you and your work. it is so easy to use.

I plan to use my 60Ds as a 2nd and 3rd cameras at the ceremony and maybe a 60D for a 2nd camera at the reception during the toast and first few dances.

I thought I report back my thoughts on the C100 for the wedding I shot last Satereday.
Keep in mind I received the camera on Friday and started shooting Saturday morning at 11:00 am. I have traditional video cameras like the Panny AC130 but mostly use the Canon 60D before this for wedding work. FYI: Canon has a few training videos about the C100 that were a big help. I watched them all before I got the camera.

- The C100 is very easy to pick up and start using
- The layout of the camera is so well thought out, it just works
- Picture quality is fabulous
- To big? Not really, but coming from the 60D it is bigger. It takes a little bit to get use to.
- I felt like I could cover anything the wedding day could through at me.
- With a little color correction, it does mix with the 60D picture, however the 60 looked so much softer then the C100 picture.
- Worth $5500? Yep, even though I think it is overpriced about $500. It is still worth $5500 if that makes any sense.
- The only regret is the C100 makes my other camera look like crap
